Reclaiming sexuality in female incest survivors.
This paper presents a comparison of female incest survivor sex therapy patients and other sex therapy patients. The focus is on family-of-origin dynamics and processes of teaching about sexuality, self-image and resulting interpersonal issues. The study also discusses nonincest survivor and incest survivor sex therapy clients with low sexual desire, their evaluation and treatment.

Relational sexuality: an understanding of low sexual desire.
Low sexual desire is discussed within the context of the relationship in which it occurs, with emphasis on each partner's intrapsychic issues as they intersect with the interpersonal issues between them. The conceptualization of the problem is based in object relations theory, whereas treatment involves systems theory and gestalt and experiential psychotherapy. Relational sexuality and intimacy in marriage are presented as foundations for treatment procedures. The therapy techniques are illustrated by case examples.
